The Court referred this case to United States Magistrate Judge Keith F. Giblin pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636. On January 26, 2017, the report of the Magistrate Judge (Doc. No. 66) was entered containing proposed findings of fact and a recommendations that the Defendants' Motion to Compel Arbitration (Doc. No. 26) be granted.
Having received the report of the United States Magistrate Judge, and no objections having been timely filed, this Court is of the opinion that the findings and conclusions of the Magistrate Judge are correct and adopts the Magistrate Judge's report as the findings and conclusions of the Court.
It is, therefore, ORDERED that the Report and Recommendation (Doc. No. 66) is ADOPTED and the Defendants' Motion to Compel Arbitration (Doc. No. 26) is GRANTED.
Pursuant to Judge Giblin's recommendation, it is further ORDERED that the parties are compelled to arbitration and this civil action is STAYED pending completion of arbitration. The parties are further ORDERED to notify the Court within five (5) days of completion of arbitration. It is finally ORDERED that the Defendants' separate motion to dismiss (Doc. No. 27) is DENIED as MOOT according to Judge Giblin's recommendation because the motion to dismiss was filed subject to the Court's ruling on the arbitration issue.
So Ordered and Signed
